The authors have gone to great lengths to provide extensive explanations of their techniques, materials and equipment used. A tremendous amount of useful hints are given throughout the book with diagrams and charts to back up the text.

The book moves from tonal reproduction, fundamental print control, and archival processing to advanced print control, covering fine-tuning, print exposure and contrast, split-grade printing both basic and advanced, print flashing, paper reciprocity failure and toning. It then moves further onto extensive negative control, covering focus, exposure, development, the Zone System, filters and unsharp masking. It has a detailed 'On Assignment' section where compelling case studies with superb illustrations are used. It ends with darkroom layouts, purchased and self-made printing tools, useful tips and tricks, templates, a helpful bibliography and a detailed index.
